I wanted to join in the current challenge at A blog named Hero where you are challenged to case a Hero Arts Artist. The challenge wasn't to make this card, but to choose which artist to case and then which of their many fabulous cards - they are so amazingly talented I wanted to case so many. Finally I settled on this wonderful card by Jennifer McGuire ;

Just got back from a wonderful and relaxing week on Åstol, a tiny fisherman's island off the west coast of Sweden and thought I'd share some pictures. We rented a house with a view of the ocean (hard not to have on this island (-; ) and it was fantastic except for one thing - I was promised internet, but when we got there it was down - so now I am behind on commenting and checking what everyone has been up to (-: Will try to catch up ASAP!!!
